Note that Eileen O'Hearn was prominently pictured on this poster and was billed as "introducing", and yet this was not her first movie! But Columbia thought she was going to be a big star, and she was given strong promotion in this movie and several others, but then her career fizzled, and the following year, she married a Columbia electrician, and never made another movie!
